A female reader, Emilysanswers United Kingdom +, writes (13 September 2008):

Go back to the place where you got them and sit down with the nurse who will explain everything. There is also a leaflet in the pack that will explain a lot of things.

If you are taking the pills every day and you do it properly then you can have sex as many times as you want.

However, it is always safer to use condoms as well, especially in the beginning when you aren't used to taking them every day and will probably forget some times. I know I did.

Good Luck!! xx

baybee-x-sparkii agony auntdepending on the type you get you will either get a pack of 21 or 28 tablets, with 21 you take them and have a week off for your period, 28 and you go straight through and during your "placebo" week you will bleed. This is better if you don't want to forget to take them. You are protected from pregnancy as long as you take them everyday at the same time as it will say on packets. I would recommend you still use condoms though!
